F1 decision-time arrives for Pascal Wehrlein

Decision-time regarding Pascal Wehrlein's F1 future is now imminent. The new DTM champion's employer, Mercedes, has been in talks with Manor about a race place for the 21-year-old. But it is believed Will Stevens and Alexander Rossi's backers have substantially more to offer the backmarker team than Mercedes' EUR 4 million for a Wehrlein seat, according to Auto Motor und Sport.

Wehrlein said: "It will be decided for sure either this week or next week at the latest." If the Manor seat is a no-go, the German youngster will simply stay in DTM. "If formula one does not work out, it would be a very big challenge for me to try to defend the title with the HWA team," he said. "I know how hard that would be." (GMM)

    Stevens AND Rossi? I don't think so, it will be either one of them, the one with the biggest budget. Most likely the other seat will go the Haryanto.
